Relatively mediocre

Perhaps the expectations for "Interstellar" were so high that I didn't feel it when I walked out of the theater. This movie is too mediocre, at least by Nolan's standards.

The movie can be regarded as a space adventure movie, with family love as a plot aid, and as one of the core themes, together supporting the ultimate proposition of human survival. So in terms of adventure movies, the plot is barely clear. There are space disasters and human struggles, but playing around is just a last-minute rescue, but the scene is placed in outer space, which is similar to other commercial movies. Too many bright colors than nothing.

According to the space movie, Nolan chose 2D correctly, because the picture is really not very impressive. Movies are mostly close-ups and close-ups of characters. There are few panoramic shots in space (CG should be easy to do), and most of them appear as backgrounds. The display of the spacecraft's equipment is even more inadequate. The lens is monotonous, and the port side lens of the spacecraft has appeared at least 8 times. Compared with "Gravity", all this is insignificant.

According to the theme of the movie, it can be briefly summarized into three points: One is the love of human beings. The word "love" has been said countless times in the mouths of rational scientists, the main part of which is the father-daughter love of the protagonist, so that Nuolanhua took an hour to set up and portray it. The relationship between father and daughter is not bad, but the character is too flat, back and forth is to show "stubbornness", especially the role of the son is even more tasteless; the

second is the survival of human beings. Whether to save the human beings on the earth or colonize the future of mankind is a good topic, but the movie is only used as a conflict point in the plot, and it is not described in depth, but for commercial movies, it is considered good;

The third is the insignificance of mankind in the face of time and the universe. It is said that this is very shocking, but I have seen enough examples of the theory of relativity. For me, the challenge of time can only be used as a movie gimmick. There is still a certain distance to shock the audience.

All in all, every aspect of the movie is quite ordinary. With such a high score, I will treat it as a breakdown in my aesthetics, but I am faithful to my own judgment.

    The whole film explores the "return" of the ultimate Odyssey in Kubrick's 2001 Space Odyssey, returning to its origins and finding a home. Outside the dimension, time does not die, and the circle is not round. The most basic human emotions, the childhood of a young girl, the meaning of life and death, the time of madly starting a prairie fire, and eternal love. After watching, she burst into tears, remembering that she explained the dimensions and space to me with her classmates when she was a child, memories like ghosts swept through, and the light of divinity shined on her origin.

    A hard science fiction feels extremely real, quiet and slow heating, and can hear the reality of the universe. My father was also a pilot. He couldn't stop his tears for three hours, desperate and helpless. Hidden behind the brain-burning physics are people's most instinctive feelings. Love itself is the most unsolvable force of science fiction. Nolan made the right decision to abandon 3D film. I think I am alone, the last look. I really want to hug McConaughey and Hathaway.
